On Monday, 11/12, we drove to Helena for FHE with Nana, Papa, Aby, Marshall, Postums and Lehmans because Drews were passing through on their move to Vancouver, WA. There was a terrible windstorm that day (and it hasn't let up much--70 mph gusts almost daily). So as we pulled on to I-90, there was this over turned semi-truck. On our way home, the highway was completely closed because there were a couple more blow-overs!
We arrived at Postums and the cousins and Nana rejoiced!
James got into mischief right away... (under Jake & Sam's table)
...and soon got his buddy, Cousin Sam involved.
Heidi and Jake are always thrilled to see eachother!

Water Babies!
We had a great time, but were so tired the next day!
Jennifer Claar made this darling shadow box for James' birthday...
I LOVE IT!
On Saturday, 11/17 we took off for Vancouver via Spokane, Washington. We had to stop in Butte to take insurance photos of this cool restaurant and pick up my nephew, Gabriel Lehman.
We loved our hotel in Spokane, especially at the employee rate!
Heidi, Addie, adn James loved it, too!
Watching Animal Planet, waiting to swim...
This was our "living area" where Gabriel slept on the hide-a-bed...

Here is a blurry-yet-so-adorable picture of Heidi, Addie, and Abby taking Sydnie for a walk in the rain on Nana's new street.
Cutie James Ole at Nana's
Addie got this great scooter for her birthday...
She loved it!
She raced with Gabriel and Abby...
But didn't try the neighbor's ramp!
Tragic (staged) Scooter Accident! This is why we wear helmets, people.
Heidi made Nana draw her some elephants to color (of course).
Abby invited Addie to her room for a slumber party
Thanksgiving Day...time for Heidi to washup for the feast!
Here's the spread (click to enlarge)
Papa carved the turkey--yum!
We brought our Pilgrim with us! 
The Gang, feasting.
You already saw out beach photos, which is what we did after dinner (we left at 2pm). On the way home, we drove around the Portland Temple--beautiful!

It's so fun to see all the pics from Mom's house. Jealous!!! All the little water babies are too cute!
I love seeing what other people eat for the Holidays.
Note to shoe addict, We were here for 1 week and then our stuff was delivered 2 days before Thanksgiving, I usually do alot better as far as decorating for the holidays....I'm still looking for kitchen stuff, that I don't have any room for.....
I was just wondering if Abby has that cool green in her room. It's awesome! YOU go Mom!
